Saramonic Blink 500 B6

Saramonic Blink 500 B6 | Two-person wireless audio for USB-C devices

The Saramonic Blink 500 B6 uses a slim, plug-in USB-C receiver, keeping the receiving unit directly at the device connection rather than on a separate cable. This 2.4 GHz wireless microphone system records two people at once, making it a compact option for mobile video makers, streamers and anyone recording spoken audio on a compatible USB-C phone or computer. Use both transmitters for an interview or a two-person piece to camera; switch to a single speaker for a solo video or voice recording. The receiver works with most USB-C devices, including compatible Android and iOS phones, and the system is intended for video, streaming and audio-recording apps. Each transmitter has an integrated omnidirectional microphone, so you can record without connecting a separate lavalier mic. The package also includes two lavalier microphones, giving you another way to capture each speaker. Saramonic specifies broadcast-quality audio, and the compact receiver avoids adding a larger receiver unit to your setup. It’s a straightforward format for creators who move between locations and need two wireless channels in a small kit. The receiver’s USB-C connection is the key point to check for your setup: this version is made for compatible USB-C devices.

What it does

• Two wireless channels: Both transmitters can be used to record two speakers, a useful layout for interviews, conversations and co-presented videos. A single transmitter also covers solo recording.
• 2.4 GHz transmission: The system uses the 2.4 GHz band and has a stated range of up to 100 metres. Saramonic lists latency at 8 ms, keeping the delay between speaking and received audio low.
• Built-in microphones and lavalier inputs: Each transmitter has an omnidirectional microphone for capturing sound around the wearer. A 3.5 mm microphone input on the transmitters accepts the included lavalier microphones when you prefer a separate clip-on mic.
• Mono or stereo output: Choose between mono and stereo output modes to suit the recording setup. Six levels of gain adjustment let you set the output level for the recording.
• OLED information display: The receiver’s OLED screen shows vital system information at a glance. This is handy when you’re setting levels or checking the system before recording.
• Charging and storage case: The case stores and charges the system, and the transmitters switch on automatically when you open it. The system is specified for up to 10 hours of recording.
